Warrant Officer 1 Jonathan Holt (Army)

"On my transition from the forces to the civilian sector, I used BVA as my NEBOSH course provider. Well the results speak for themselves, 3 out of 3 passed and on my first attempt with all. The advice given by the advisors (Claire) was superb. The professionalism continues with their first-rate instructors. I could not be happier with the way the courses progressed. First rate from start to finish!"
